Description I was asked how I color my works so I decided to do a tutoral of sorts

1) draw your picture
2) outline with the colors you are going to use when coloring it, or use a darker shade of the pencil you are going to use to color with
3) color in lightly
4/5) shade where the lighting seems aproprate
4/5 the bottom one) is re-outline the whole thing in black afterwards.

I'm sure the actual process has to be a LOT more complicated than this. The cat here is a much simpler version of the rest of your pictures, which are totally kickass.

Mwahaha! Now I know your secret to coloring! I shall...*shot*

Nice and simple tutorial! I'm hoping to eventually move from drawing with black pen outline just to having color outlines someday. :>
